We have our holidays and our rcumjiis of nin-ntinn and .pilot, but where is the man in this world who has found entire rest? The fact is that G<xl • lid not make this world to rent in. A ship might as well go down off Cape Hat teras to find smooth water as a man in this world to find ijuiot. From the way that God has strewn the thorns, and hung tiie clouds, and ftharjiencd the tusks; from tlie colds that distress us, and the heat# that -mite us, and the pleurisies that stub us, and the lev.-rs that consume us, 1 know that ho •lid not make this world as a place to loiter in. God does everything success fully. and this world would be a very dif ferent world if it were Intended for us to lounge in. It d.ssi right, well for a few j y.-ars. Indeed it is magnificent. Nothing j but infinite wisdom and goodness could have mixed this ixwerage of water, or hung up these brack, ts of stars, or trained th. m voices <>f rill and Idrd and .xiwiii, so that God has but. to lift his hand and the wh.de world breaks forth into orchestra But, after all, it is only the splendor# of a king's highway*, over which we are to mare.li on to eternal conquests Cares of the Wealthy.

They had emblazoned carriages, high mettled ate.sis, footmen, plate that confounded lords and senators who sat at their (aide, tuj.esf.ry on whi.li flouted the richest designs of foreign looms, splendor of canvas on tho wall, exquisiteness of music rising among pedestals of bronze and dropping soft us light on snow of sculpture.

The first \Vas Napoleon in triumph; the. last was Napoleon with his heart broken.

W<> follow Babylon and Thels-s and Nine veh into the dust." No rest for the flow ers; they fade No rest for the stars; they die. No rest for man; he must work, toil, suffer and slave. Now, for what have I said all this* i Just to prepare you for the text, “Arise : ye and depart, for this is not j our rest. ” I I am going to make you a grand offer. Sonic of you remember that when gold j was discovered in California large com panies were made up and start-si off to get their f<irt une, and a year ago, for the same purpose, hundreds dared the cold of-Alas ka. T'xiny 1 want to make up a jiarty for the land of God. I hold in my hand a deed from the proprietor of the estate, in which ho offers to all who will join the comjiariy 10.0U0 sharee of infinite value, in a city whose stroets are gold, whose hnrjis arc gold, whose crowns are gold. You have fc*ml of the crusaders—how that many thousands of them went off to con quer the holy sepulcher. I a#k you to join a grander crusade, not for the purpose of conquering the sepulcher of a dead Christ, but for the purpose of reaching the throne of a living Jesus. ‘When an army is to be made up, the recruiting officer examine# the volunteers, he tests their eyesight, he sounds their lungs, he measures their stature. They must be just right, or they are rejectisl. But there shall be no par tiality in making up this army of Christ. Whatever your moral or physical stature, whutever your dissolutions, whatever your crimes, whatever your weaknesses, 1 have a commission from the Lord Almighty to make up this regiment of ri-deemed souls, and I cry, "Arise ye and dejiart, for this Is not your rest.” Many of you have late ly joined this company, and my desire is that you all may join it. Why not? You know In your own hearts' experience that what I have wild about this world is true; that it is no jilaco txi rest in. There are humlred# here *v<ary«—oh, how weary— weary with sin, weary with trouble, weary with Is-reuvement. Some of you have been pierced through and through. You carry the H< urs of a score of conflicts, iti which you have bled nt every jioro, and you sigh, "Oh, that I had the wings of a dove, that I might fly away imil be at rest!” You have taken the cup of this world's pleas ures and drunk it to the dregs and still the thirst claws at your tongue and the fever strikes to your brain You have chased ph nsure through every valley, by every stream, amid every brightness and under every shadow, but just at the mo ment when you were all really to put your hand upon the rosy, laughing sylph of the wood she turned upon you with the glare of a fiend and the eye of a satyr, her locks adders and her breath the chill damp of a grave. Out of Jesus Christ, no rest. No voice to silence the storm. No light to kindle the darkness. No drydock to re pair tiie split bulwark. T hank God, 1 can tell you something better If there Is no rest on earth, there Is rest in heaven. Oh, ye who are worn out wit h work, your hands calloused, your bucks bent, your ey es half put out, your lingers worn with the needle, that in this world you may never laydown; ye dis couraged ones, who haw: lx*en waging a hand to hand fight for bre.-wi; ye to whom the night brings little rest and the morn ing more drudgery—oh, ye of the weary hand and the weary side and the weary foot, hear me talk about rest! The Work Ih Done. Look at that company of enthroned ones. It cannot he that those bright ones ever toiled? Yes, yes! These packed the Chinest) tea boxes and through missionary instruction escaped into glory. These sweltered on southern plantations, and one night, after the cotton picking, went up as white as if they had never been black. Those died of overtoil in the Low oil carpet factories and these in Manchester mills, those helped build the pyramids and these broke away from work on the day Christ was hounded out. of Jerusalem. No more towers to build; heaven is done. No more garments toweave; the robes are fin ished No more harvests to raise; the garners are full Oh, sons and daughters of toil, arise ye and depart, for that, is your rest I Scovill McCallum, a boy of my Sunday schtMil, while dying, said to. his mother, "Don’t cry, hut sing, sing: “There is rest for the weary, There is rest for the. weary." Then, putting his wasted hand over his heart, he said, "There is rest for me.” But there are some of you who want to hear about the land where they never have nnj' heartbreak# and no graves are dug. Where are your father and mother? The most of you are orphans. I look around, and where I see one man who has jiarents living I see ten who are orphans. Where arc your children? Where I see one family circle that is unbroken I see three or four that, have been desolated. One lamb gone out. of this fold, one flower plucked from that garland, one golden link broken from that, chain, here a bright light put out and there another and yon der another. With such griefs how are you to rest? Will there ever be a power that can attune that silent voice or kindle the luster of that closed eye or put spring and dance into that little foot? When we bank up the dust over the dead, is the sod never to bo broken? Is the cemetery to hear no spund but the tire of tho hearse wheel or the tap of the bell at the gate as the long processions come in with their awful bur dens of grief? Is the bottom of the grave gravel and tho top dust? No, no, no! The tomb is only a place where we wrap our robes about us for a pleasant nap on our way home The swellings of Jordan will only wash <ff the dust of the way. From the top of Ihe grave we catch a glimpse of the towers glinted with the sun that never sets. Oh, ye whose locks are wet with the dews of the night of grief, ye whose hearts are heavy because those well known foot steps sound no more at the doorway, yon der is your rest! There is David trium phant, but once he bemoaned Absalom. There is Abraham enthroned, but once he wept for Sarah There is Paul exultant, but he onee sat with his feet in the stocks. There is Payson radiant with immortal health, Init on earth he was always sick. Xo toil, no tears, no partings, no strife, _ no agonizing cough, no night, no storm to rutile the crystal sea. no alarm to strike from the catlualral towers, no dirge throb bing from seraphic harps, no tremor in the everlasting song, but rest, perfect rest, unending rest! A Glorious Reunion. Into that rest, how many loved ones .have gone! Some put down the work of inidiifi', feeling they could hardly be spared from the store or shop for a day, but are to be spared from it forever. Some went in old age. One came tottering on his staff and uses! to sit at the foot of the pulpit, his wrinkled face radiant with the fight thaf Jails from the throne of God. Another having lived a life of Christian consistency here, ever busy with kind nesses for her children, her heart full of that meek and quiet spirit that is in the sight of God of great price, suddenly her countenance was transfigured, and the j gate was opened, and she took her place amid that great cloud of witnesses that hov<ft* about the throne! Glorious consolation! They are not dead. You cannot make me believe they are dead. They have only moved on. With : more love than that with which they greet ed us on earth they watch us from their high place and their voices cheer us in our struggle for the sky Hail, spirits blessed, now that ye have passed the lioixt and won the crown. With weary feet we press up tho shining way, until in everlasting re union we shall meet again. Oh, won’t it be grand, when our conflicts done and our partings over, we shall clasp hands and cry out, “This is heaven?” By the thrones of your departed kindred, by their gentle hearts and the tenderness ; and love with which they now call you from the skies, I beg you start on the high road to heaven. In the everlasting fest may we ail meet. One of the old writers wished he could have seen three things: Rome in its pros perity, Daul preaching, Christ in the body. I have three wishes: First, to see Christ in glory, surrounded by his redeemed; sec ond, to see Christ in glory, surrounded by his redeemed l third,, to see Christ in glory, surrounded Ire his redeemed.

Question of Who Will Handle the Dark Blue’s This Year. New York, June 27.—-A special to the Press from New Haven, Conn., says: It has been proposed that R. 0. Lerman, the English coach, be invited to come to Yale and take charge of the crew next year. The plan has nany warm supporters among Yale men. i T has a number of op ponents also. The athletic advisers of the college are considering the proposition in conjunction with a dozen .more plans for a crew coach. Captain Fred Allen, who was chosen to lead the crew another year, admitted that the question would have to be settled by repeated conferences of Yale’s rowing advisers. This applies to football baseball and the crew and the track team. Captain Al len. therefore, if he wishes to exercise his prerogative, wih have the final choice in cbosing a coach. At present the chances seem to be that . Jim Rogers will be invited to act as coach. He will be graduated next Wednesday but may return to study in the law class. It will be remembered that he defeated the Harvard and Cornell freshmen a year ago at Poukeepsie and had absolute control of the Yale freshmen, who did the same trick te the Harvard and Cornell freshmen last week at New London. Bob Cook has some stubborn opponents among Yale’s recent graduates, ana es pecially among she captains of the crews of recent years. They nave planar-d that the Yale coach shall be either Al H. Coales, of Chicago, captain of the crew, or Richard ArmYrcug, of Hamilton, Va. captain of the ’95 crew, and this year’s eoaeh of the victorious Annapolis naval academy. Mr. Cook himself will spend the sum mer in Europe. This will be his third trip to study English methods. He has had an offer to coach a French crew this summer and probably will accept it after spending a few weeks in England. It Is known that Mr. Cook has received a flattering offer ' from a leading American university te eoaeh its crew for a term of two years and that if he is not with Yale he can at once step into this position. He will give no answer till fall. A TRICK. It certainly looks like it, but there Is really no trlek about It. Anybody can try It who has lame back and weak kidneys, malaria or nervous troubles.

WILL URGE SPAIN TO SECURE PEACE Thought that European Pow- j ers Will Ask that She Accede To DEMANDS OF THIS COUNTRI It is Thought that this Will be Done After the Inevitable Fall of Santiago. New York, June 27 —A special to the Tribune from Washington says; In view of the increasing frequency with which rumors of possible peace conditions are entering into the discussion of semi official and inspired European journals considerable significance Is attached to the statement by a member of the cabinet that no proposition would be for a moment entertained by the United States at this time which did not involve Spain’s abso lute relinquishment of sovereignty over Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippine is lands. The probable attitude of the United States to these former colonial ffbssessions of Spain in the future this authority de clined to discuss, but in his opinion the comj.'ete eradication of Spanish influence and interest so far as these islands were concerned had already become a foregone conclusion, and the United States would > not at any time hereafter permit Spain to enter into any negotiation regarding them. Regarding the ultimate terms of peace which the United States may find it neces sary to exact in case the expensive con flict is prolonged many months involving the necessity of extended American oper ations against the peninsula itself or its closer colonial establishments, only the most indefinite discussion is just now in dulged in. The irretrevable loss to the Spaniards of their last American foothold, .as well as of their 111-governed establishments in the Pacific, has brought about by the United States reluctance to be laid open to the accusation of any desire for terri torial aggrandizement and any suggestion of Interference by the friends of Spain for the ultimate disposition of the West India islands of the Philippines Is sure to be repelled by the United States in the most unequivocal and decisive manner. The officials of the state department ex hibit confidence apparently based upon convincing assurances that Spain has in reality less to expect from one or two European nations than is warranted by the interpretation put on various state ments attributed to leading men or pub lished in papers having the shaky reputa tion of tremendous inspiration, and little concern Is now displayed in this country over the emanations from such sources. The persistence with which the Spaniards have been trying to make capital out of the unfriendly expressions in certain European localities that is considered to ibe commercial rivals of the United States lias ceased to be regarded as more than amusing or in some recent instances per haps, pathetic. The third change in the Spanish govern ment in less than three months is looked upon as indisputable proof of the wjde divergence of opinioon if not demoraliza tion that is rapidly increasing ip Spain as indicative of impending collapse which will terminate the futile attempt to main tain the control of her colonies when the power of governing her home possessions has almost vanished. The presumption that European governments might seize the opportunity after the capitulation of Santiago and the destruction of Admiral Cervera’s fleet to endeavor to ascertain from the United States what terms of peace would be accepted is now believed to have been replaced by the other extreme alternative of their sounding Spain as to the sacrifices she is ready to make, coupled with the advice that it is imperative upon her to undertake the immediate satisfac tion of American demands.
